This video zoom takes a closer look at the Sculptor Dwarf Galaxy. The video starts with a ground-based view of the sky, from the Digitized Sky Survey 2 and slowly zooms on the constellation of Sculptor. There it first shows the Sculptor Dwarf Galaxy as it was observed by the 2.2-meter MPG/European Southern Observatory (ESO) telescope at the La Silla Observatory in Chile and finishes with the tiny part of the galaxy observed with the NASA/European Space Agency Hubble Space Telescope.
